Review: LYRA-8 explained // SOMA LABS

LYRA-8 is a synth that behaves like it's from outer-space. From otherworldy drones to modulations that certainly aren't from Kansas, LYRA-8 isn't like any other synth.

But is that a good thing? Check it out if you're ready to step outside your comfort and into the twilight zone...
